The study investigates the ligand specificity of the human mannose receptor, particularly focusing on carbohydrate-recognition domain 4, and elucidates the molecular mechanisms driving binding specificity. The data contribute to understanding Ca2+-mediated binding promiscuity in the receptor and highlight unexpected interactions for further study.
The human mannose receptor plays an important role in scavenging a variety of glycans and glycoconjugates, which contributes to both innate and adaptive immunity. However, the fine details of its ligand specificity, and specifically that of carbohydrate-recognition domain 4, the most functionally relevant C-type lectin domain within the receptor, are not completely understood. Feinberg et al. use glycan arrays, crystallography, and a newly trimmed version of carbohydrate-recognition domain 4 to elucidate the molecular mechanisms driving binding specificity. These data contribute to our molecular understanding of Ca2+-mediated binding promiscuity in the human mannose receptor and the scavenging role of the receptor itself and highlight unexpected interactions that should inspire further study.
